Happy Friday the 13th, Fug Nation! Have you hugged your black cat today?  
  
\-- These cats will need a hug,[ as their owners dressed them up and made them take part in a fashion show.](https://www.refinery29.com/cat-fashion-show-nyc.php?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) One of them is dressed as Edward Cullen. And they are PISSED. (Refinery29)

\-- Are we the only ones out there who had NO IDEA how cracked-out the Little Orphan Annie comic strip is now? She got roped into the sale of fake passports to Mexican drug dealers, and had to be rescued by a war criminal; she was imprisoned in North Korea; and she and Warbucks did... something with Guantanamo, I don't know what. And now the cartoon has come to its end after 86 years, [and the ending -- involving a man named The Butcher of the Balkans -- is as nutso as the rest of it](https://www.comicsalliance.com/2010/06/14/little-orphan-annie-ending/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). Damn, girl. Take a nap. (Comics Alliance)  
  
\-- Rue McClanahan's ginormous apartment is for sale. [Don't you want to look inside? There's a secret passage](https://nymag.com/daily/intel/2010/07/walk-through%5Frue%5Fmcclanahans%5Fs.html?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)! (NY Mag)  
  
\-- I've been WAITING for Bret Easton Ellis to take on the debauched, nihilistic world of the *Babysitter's Club*.[ At last! ](https://crushable.com/other-stuff/baby-sitters-club-by-bret-easton-ellis-chapter-1/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)(Crushable)  
  
\-- [So, these two dudes took a cross-country trip to correct the typos of America's signage. And then they wrote a book about it](https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=129086941&sc=fb&cc=fp&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). All I know is, that must have been the most careful proof-reading of any book of all time. (NPR)  
  
\-- Speaking of books,[ check out Literature's 10 Best-Dressed Characters, as named by Flavorwire.](https://flavorwire.com/109616/literatures-10-best-dressed-characters?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) I would have included the Wakefields, myself. Hello! Jessica's off-the-shoulder sweatshirts and Elizabeth's dowdy long skirts showed GREAT flair. (Flavorwire)  
  
\-- [Only Karl Lagerfeld would wear THIS whilst on vacation](https://laineygossip.com/Karl%5FLagerfeld%5Fand%5Fmuse%5FBaptiste%5Fin%5FSt%5FTropez%5Famazingness%5FAugust%5F2010%5F13aug10.aspx?CatID=0&CelID=0&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). And that is why we love him. POSE! (Lainey)  
  
\-- Speaking of books AND vacations, [NPR suggests five books ABOUT vacations](https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=129009184&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). *Eat Pray Love* is not one of them. Although I suppose that was not a vacation as much as A JOURNEY. (NPR)  
  
\-- The good thing about the end of summer is that it signals the beginning of football season. Start your fantasy leagues now, y'all.[ Learn how to do it, if you aren't already in one -- I am, and although Heather beats me every year, it's really fun!](https://glo.msn.com/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io#stackState=2%5F%5F%2Fbeauty%2Fare-you-ready-for-some-football-1533832.story) *\[*(It's possible that I often lose because, despite being fairly well-versed in football as a sport, when at a loss for who to draft I tend to default to the dude with the best name. Apparently, that's not the best strategy. Who knew?) \[*Note: In Jess's defense, I am only up on her in our college league. She always whips me in our NFL league, despite the fact that I've played about seven years longer than she has, so: experience is not required for victory, y'all. So join a league! Picking your team name and avatar is fun. One of my teams uses K-Fed's picture. Another? Carrot Top. -H\]* (Glo)  
  
\-- [Tom and Lorenzo think Christina Hendricks needs to fire someone, based on her GQ spread. ](https://tomandlorenzo2.blogspot.com/2010/08/christina-hendricks-for-gq-uk.html?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)I have to say, they make an excellent argument. (Tom and Lorenzo)  
  
\-- [Lilo is allegedly writing a book based on her experiences in the joint](https://www.celebitchy.com/112476/lindsay%5Flohan%5Fset%5Fto%5Fmajorly%5Fcash%5Fin%5Fafter%5Frehab%5Fstay%5Fwith%5Fbook%5Fendorsements%5Fmore/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). I mock this, and yet if in fact this book is published, I will totally read it and tell you guys all about it. Listen, the girl needs the income! (Celebitchy)  
  
\-- I love cookbooks and I love lists: ergo, [I love that the Guardian is putting together a list of the 50 best cookbooks of all time.](https://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/wordofmouth/2010/aug/13/food-and-drink-food?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) One of them is from 1570! I can only imagine what appetizers were like in 1570\. I feel like there would be an excess of capon, and, like, mead. Mmm, mead. (The Guardian)
